Same. 3mf file. just hit the download button.

PrusaSlicer etc. does fine with those

cura did not.
but oh well.

hmm…looks like they might have saved it in a non-generic format.

I think PrusaSlicer also uses 3mf and embeds printer profile, etc.

It can’t open it either, so Bambu must have changed whatever Prusa was doing enough that it broke it from reading it.

3mf is supposed to be an open XML format, and it looks like they turned it into a binary mess

Isn’t 3mf a zip of an xml or something like that?

I remember someone not wanting to use it because they were worried it has personal information and they couldn’t verify the info inside.

hmm…appears to be.

I saw some other things online that just showed the raw xml.

For some reason, PrusaSlicer errors out trying to read that model :man_shrugging:

looks like a character problem…could be fixable

Orcaslicer might open it. I think when I installed 1.9 it claimed some new project file format that was incompatible with prior versions. Maybe this is that?

I tried it and Orca did open it, with this warning…

It opened with the printer and filament settings that whoever uploaded it used. But it was no problem for me to switch back to my printer and filament settings
